    I was so against this controller at first just because of the price, but after having one it is definitely worth it. I like you can change out the joysticks and go buy them as well instead of having to buy a new controller like the regular dual sense. It feels better in the hand for me. Those back paddles are cool and I have set mine based of what game I would be playing. Now the battery does go quick, at least imo, but not a problem. Being able to adjust the triggers is another plus for me. Playing FPS has gotten easier for me and playing all other games I set triggers accordingly. I love the controller and hopefully they will bring it in different colors. I keep this as a main and my dual sense as a back up or something the kids can use if they want to play.

    Great to finally see someone with a longer term usage review on Edge. Even better that it's from the UK :) I bought mine last week, mainly for COD on my PC. I love the build and the grip that the pattern provides. The paddles are great and I love the click mechanism. I previously used Sony's back button attachment and KontrolFreeks on a DS4. Only issue I found was that the sticks had ridiculous stick drift that before I updated the software. A minor gripe would be that I would have liked for the L2/R2 buttons to be a little more shallow for a quicker press. Overall, I think it's better than the Elite, as it has removable sticks whilst the Elite doesn't. The Elite also has major issues with faulty buttons and stick drift. Also, their rubber grip had a tendency to start falling off.
    Have you found any issues with stick drift as of yet? I don't think it was mentioned.

    Let’s be real, The Xbox elite series 1/2 are the BEST “pro” model controllers, from the Control & the carrying case as well as accessories & battery life. I’ve had both Series 1 & 2 and have had ZERO issues with them besides my hand sweat causing the rubber gripping from the series one to loosen & peel off after 4 years. I also love having 4 paddles instead of 2 & the ability to tune each thumpstick to my liking. I do own a PS5 and the edge as well and love how it’s still feels like the original dualsense with all the 1st party features it has but having to always charge it so often, the noise the triggers make after a while as well as only having 2 paddles are some of the negatives but the positives out weigh those few negatives, as well as costing around $25 more than Xbox’s.

    I think it's worth it. It feels like what it is. A premium controller. Been using mine now for about a year and only recently started experiencing stick drift (left side as usual). Bought it mainly because you could easily swap out joysticks/modules that give stick drift but thing is now that I've started to experience stick drift and want to buy a replacement they are all out of stock for quite some time now with no new stock in sight and scalpers who are passing off imitation modules are offering them at 2-3 times the normal price of the genuine PS5 Edge module.

    The x is how many times you replace the controller or removable joystick, which will be replaced every 7 months. When they overlap in cost, multiply x by 7 and you'll have the time until the prices level out.

    I was going to buy one of these but they don’t even make the replacement analogs anymore and haven’t been in stock for lik 6 months

    Yes. I know it after 3 minutes.
    Why? Programmable keys at the bottom of the gamepad and adjustable analog acceleration curve.
    But before taking it out of the box - I was not sure and to be honest I doubted the product while buying it. But for me - it is worth it.
    But the question is to you, are those tiny improvements worth such a huge pile of money?

    I love the controller. My biggest gripe is that the rubber grips have started peeling on both sides. I bought this controller for longevity so that's pretty annoying. I would have preferred to just have plastic grips.

    To me it’s not worth the $200, the battery life is CRAP. The Xbox elite has a battery that you can’t drain, and I have not had any problems, how can Sony make a controller like this and. It improve the battery. It’s a no for me.
